Not a CAO, just a morphed CAR. I have multiple colonies fragged from the same colony that look different.

Yellow rings like a bowser, some that look like the one from elite, and one colony that looks like normal ultra CAR.

Then the question is do cao even exist? These look like every pic I've ever seen on r2r. I can tell you that you could put the pic I did up on r2r and sell them for 100$ per polyp as cao all day long.

So i am holding some lineaged cao from Colin p with mindblowing corals. I'm telling you they are the same as the ones elite has. I dunno peeps on r2r go round and round on bowsers vs car vs cao vs 5 color rainbow. I think the issue is that no one can definitively tell u what the difference is. They just do like we have done on here and say " no those aren't them but they do exist".

lol R2R is littered with this same argument. I'm actually impressed, we are keeping it far more civil than they did. I think they are CAO and I think I could sell them as CAO and R2R peps would buy them. Having said this, I've never see seen a pic of one that people seem to unanimously agree upon.... thus how would anyone know? I did see the pic on zoanthids.com and for my money it was the same as these, but again there was a huge debate on R2R on whether those were really CAO as well. DV3 its not nice to keep sevrets! i want to know, what you know, that I dont.

My opinion and simply my opinion is they are Candy Apple with more Orange than normal. You see Candy Apple's with more red and the have more orange than most. Besides that I dont think there is a fish in the ocean that know's which they are. However if someone can find Crush I bet he could tell us. We need to decide on something or Jason fox will be calling them a JF limited edition and they will be selling for 300 a polyp........... :)

Ok I have sat back and was not going to say any thing but the talk of selling these on R2R I have to. The zoas you bought are in fact CAR I sold elite a few nice frags of my CAR just a couple days before this thread started. Please don't sell them on R2R as CAO because you would be selling them the wrong coral.

On a side note these CAR are some of the brightest I have ever had or seen.

I'm renaming them bowser apple oranges. Dvenson what's to say u didn't have cao all along? I mean my guess is that the lineaged ones are a car morph anyways. I think the same is probably true of bowsers. I have lineages cao I'm holding for colin p and they are the same ill post pics a lil later

Daniel, are these some that came from me?
they "could" be
I also purchased some from CA and from Rangerbob. I cant tell the difference

they were under my 89 watt led setup from JBJ some in medium to high light some in lower to medium lighting and they looked the same.
